I can't wait to road test this setup.... once I get an alignment done:

Calipers appear to be installed with the bleeders on the bottom?

Those calipers are from a '98 or '00 F-body Firebird I believe, and the bleeders are at the bottom, which makes them very difficult to bleed. I just assumed all F-body calipers adapted to our vehicle had this issue.... is this not the case?

Mine arent like that. Swap sides

Hmmm... I'll have to investigate this. I don't think the braided brake lines that came in the Renz Fab kit for doing this conversion are long enough to switch sides.... Maybe I got brake lines for doing a C5 caliper setup accidentally?

Measure and see if someone can verify the brake lines. Youll play hell trying to bleed that. We put a rear disc setup on a Silverado SS in the dark, upside down. Couldn't get it bled.

I got it all sorted out today.... I must have routed the brake lines incorrectly initially and thought the caliper had to be turned upside down to make everything work.... bleeding was hell. Thanks for the keen eye and support!

Nice job.

I have to do the Typhoon soon. The Brakes and suspension are hell.

I did the Syclone back 4-5 years ago so I kinda remember what I'm doing.
